Title: someone complimented me on my GS Friday night...
Post by: Jazzzzz on September 25, 2005, 12:34:55 AM
but he was really just using at a line before hitting on me, WTF  :x

I was riding home from work, stopped at the light at the end of my exit ramp, and a guy in a gold Mercedes pulls up next to me and rolls his window down.  It's 3AM, the guy has a shaZam!-eating grin on his face and bloodshot eyes, and I think to myself that maybe the guy is a little drunk.  He says "nice bike, you look good on it", so I nod and say thanks, and we banter back and forth for a bit.  Two minutes later as the light turns green, the dude asks me if I party and want to come back to his place for a while.  I just flipped the visor on my helmet down and cracked the throttle.

What I really don't get, now that I've thought about it a bit, is that I had a full-face helmet, a bulky armored jacket, and armored pants on.  1) what about me would've set off this guy's gaydar 2) how could he have had any idea what I looked like?

I'm sticking with the drunk theory, for dignity's (and sanity's) sake.

"nice bike" = nice bike
"you look good on it" = can i hump you?

in your situation, I would have smiled in a ghey-ish way and said with a sweet voice: "catch me if you can sailor" and open the throttle right then.

I can think of a lot of excuses to buy a faster bike but outrunning drunk gays has never entered the picture before...

It might be the pink leathers you wear with the huge etched rainbow on the back that give it away. :thumb:

Now stop being ghey. "Don't be ghey Sparky. Don't be ghey." :cheers:

Now this is a bit of a personal question, but are you a guy, and are you ghey?  I always figured gaydar worked by sense of smell.  Straight men don't smell like lilacs, and straight women don't smell like a man.

Ok gaydar is actually more of a compilation of things.  Mannerism, speech, dress, topics of conversation, hygene, hair cut, and many more all add up to make gaydar.  But it is not a perfect science mind you.

You know...  Getting hit on by a ghey guy should be a pretty big compliment...  It means your hotter than all the ghey guys in the place...

Getting hit on by a drunk ghey guy doesn't mean anything.   :lol:

Anyone who takes that as a compliment is going to find himself entertaining sexual fantasies of having a banana rammed up his rump!  It's just a matter of time.  :roll:

And that's an actual compliment, unlike "hotter than all the straight guys in the place..."  That's damning with faint praise.  :)  *ducks and runs*

Are you saying there's something wrong with those of us who fantasize about having a banana rammed up one's rump?

Anyone that thinks being hit on by ghey guys will make them ghey is already ghey.

It's no different than a friend complementing you on your looks.  New hair cut, new shirt, etc.  When people think you look good and they let you know, it's a complement.

When a women hits on me (which happened once), it's a complement.  It's not an invitation for me to "ram my banana" at her.  I'm married, so it makes no difference...

I agree that it's a little creepy to be hit on by a guy (or an ugly/fat woman), but it's still a complement...

I wasn't offended, just confused and disappointed.  I put a fair amount of work into getting my bike running and looking decent, and when the guy complimented me on the bike it felt good to get that proverbial pat on the back.  When the pat moved down a foot or so, it invalidated the original compliment.

I'm not going to take his hitting on me as a compliment either, because as I said there's no way in hell he could've seen what I look like.  Even the nice ass comment is invalid -- I was wearing a backpack that rests on the seat when I'm on the bike.

The whole thing was just an extended version of the old "nice shoes, wanna f***" line.
